PHOENIX – March 12, 2013 – The Presiding Disciplinary Judge of the Arizona Supreme Court has issued an order disbarring Thomas M. Corea of Dallas, Texas. The order is a result of reciprocal discipline being imposed.

Pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 57(b), the Presiding Disciplinary Judge will generally impose identical or substantially similar discipline on a lawyer disciplined in another jurisdiction. Corea was disbarred in Texas for theft of client funds. The discipline imposed in Texas is the basis for the order disbarring him in Arizona.
